I'm a bit late to this thread, but I had a large company out of New York place a hologram sticker on the front of a 1956 Game 5 ticket signed by Don Larsen. They then told me that it was MY responsibility to let them know beforehand not to do it, even though it was never indicated anywhere it would be done. They then told me that it made it worth more $$ and it was desirable and I was the only one who complained about it ever.
To remove it, I used a hair dryer on a low heat and a scalpel blade. Some very mild residue remained but it was salvaged.
